    1. Insulin is produced in and released from the pancreas.

    2. In response to insulin or glucagon, either glycogenesis or gluconeogenesis (respectively) will take place in the liver.

    3. Glucose is stored as glycogen in the liver and in muscle cells.

    4. The body can either use for energy, convert it to glycogen or store it as fat: glucose.

    5. Occurs when blood glucose level drops below 70 mg/dl: Hypoglycemia.

    6. As part of the response to increased blood glucose after a meal, insulin triggers the number of glucose transporters on the cell membranes in the body to be increased.

    7. Insulin is a key hormone produced by the pancreas that plays a key role in regulating blood glucose levels after a meal.

    8. Glucose is converted to fat for storage in fat tissue.

    9. Glucagon is a key hormone produced by the pancreas that plays an important role in regulating blood glucose levels during times of fasting.

    9. Glucagon is a key hormone produced by the pancreas that plays an important role in regulating blood glucose levels during times of fasting

    Explanation:

    Insulin is a hormone that has an opposite effect to glucagon, when there is a peak of glycemia in the bloodstream, the metabolic rate and the muscular activity of the organism are analyzed, if it is not in the consumption stage, the insulin is released so that the physiological glycemic peak can be lowered, so in this way the glucose enters the cells acting as an energy source, becoming the energy currency called ATP.

    In the event that this energy is not wasted, said energy will be conserved in the form of an energy reserve (large reserves due to sedentary lifestyle or lack of activity, we would be talking about accumulation of adipose tissue).

    On the other hand, glucagon acts in the opposite way, instead of acting as an anabolic route of formation of reserves or of energy sources such as insulin, it acts as a promoter of the catabolic pathways promoting gluecogenolysis.
